This next generation level of control and real-time auditing not only protects customers from accidental loss but also prevents third parties mishandling personal or sensitive data.

"Over the last 12 months the uptake of Egress Switch has taken off as organisations from across the Public and Commercial Sectors recognise the importance of secure management and control of information and data when sharing it with third parties," commented Tony Pepper, CEO for Egress Software Technologies. "In today's tough economic conditions, organisations are all under pressure to reduce costs and maintain services whilst also ensuring they comply with the Data Protection Act when handling sensitive information and avoid potentially heavy fines from the Information Commissioners Office."

"We believe that being shortlisted for IT Security Software of the Year at the SSA12 Awards is further recognition of the work we are doing to ensure these organisations overcome the dangers of information loss as well as helping them to streamline their processes and reduce operational costs."
